Shows the layout of samples, controls (e.g., negative controls (NC), Inter-plate controls (IPC) and special wells if any (e.g., Sample controls (SC)) on the 96 well assay plate.
NOTE: Plate ID variable had missing or duplicate entries so plate IDs were automatically assigned.

Summary of the number and classification of reads for the assay run
Each sample of the assay is spiked with the same concentration of at least one internal control (IC). This is used both as part of a well normalization procedure and as a method for assessing the uniformity of the assay run. SD: standard deviation. CV: coefficient of variation
Internal Control (IC) summary - mCherry
IPC samples are pooled plasma controls used both to normalize samples between experiments and to assess performance (e.g., precision) of the assay.
Note: %CV in this table does not exclude values below LOD. See Coefficient of variation section for %CV (before and after normalization) that excludes values below LOD.
IPC summary
NC wells are reactions where no sample input is provided (i.e., buffer only). These are used to assess Limit of Detection (LOD) for each target assay and to assess run quality (e.g., background levels).
NC summary
Heatmaps show the percent relative to plate median for log2(total counts) and the specified internal control(s).
Plate-specific QC criteria:
QC criteria are assessed either on unnormalized (raw) or IPC-normalized (IPC) data.
Number of warnings: 0

Target Detectability
Target detectability is the percentage of samples that are above the limit of detection for that target. A target is considered “detectable” if it is above limit of detection in greater than 50% of samples. “Overall” detectability is the overall percentage of samples across all plates that are above LOD for a given target. Target detectability reported here excludes IPC, SC, & NC samples.

Overall
Plot shows target IC-IPC-normalized count distributions relative to LOD. For each target, log2(LOD) was subtracted from log2(count) for IC-normalized data. Reverse-curve quantified targets are denoted by a “*” and are plotted as forward-curve targets for compatibility
%CV was calculated for each target (excluding internal controls) for the SCs. Only values above LOD were used to calculate %CV. Some targets may have missing CV due to too many values below LOD.
IPC inter-plate CV
Sample boxplots show distributions of the log2 counts for each sample, unnormalized and after IC + IPC normalization.
Plot shows the Pearson correlation between samples. Hierarchical clustering is done using complete linkage.
Hierarchical clustering of both samples and targets was done using a Euclidean distance metric and complete linkage. Data is log2 and IC-IPC normalized; targets are centered and scaled.
A plate will have a plate effect QC warning if 10% or more of targets are significant. Significant targets have a significant global ANOVA F-test (unadjusted p < 0.01) and significant pairwise tests (Tukey-adjusted p < 0.01) in comparisons with 50% or more of the other plates.
Number of warnings: 2
Plate effect QC summary table
A target will have a QC warning if plate ICC > 10%, significant F-test (unadjusted p < 0.01) and significant pairwise tests (Tukey-adjusted p < 0.01) for at least one plate.
155 targets have a plate effect QC warning.
Targets with plate effect QC warning
A linear mixed effect model was fit for each target with plate ID as random effect. The plate-related intra-class correlation is the ratio of the estimated plate-related variance to the sum of plate and residual variance. This is multiplied by 100 and can be interpreted as the percent of variance attributable to plate. Target is highlighted if ICC > 10%.
155 targets have plate ICC > 10%.
Boxplots are shown for targets with plate effect QC warning. A target will have a QC warning if plate ICC > 10%, global ANOVA F-test is significant (unadjusted p < 0.01) and target has significant pairwise tests for at least one plate (Tukey-adjusted p < 0.01 with at least 50% of other plates). Red asterisks above boxplots indicate plates showing significant pairwise test with 50% or more plates.
155 targets have a plate effect QC warning.
Plots for the top 30 targets based on plate ICC are shown below.
Sample mean NPQ for each target is shown by plate in the heatmap. Target values are centered and scaled. Control samples were excluded from mean calculations.
PCA was performed on the sample mean by target and plate matrix shown in the heatmap above.
PCA shown below was performed on the samples only, excluding any control samples. Samples are colored according to plate.
Pairs plots show the first 10 PCs plotted against each other. Any clustering by plate in the plots indicates potential plate effect(s).
Sample metadata variables including plate and sample matrix, if provided, were correlated against the principal component scores for the first 10 PCs. P-values are adjusted using the Bonferroni correction. Significance scale for adjusted p-values: * < 0.05, ** < 0.01, *** < 0.001.
